Do you have to be an artist to use Bryce? I don't think so. You do have to want to creat art. I am a frustrated artist. Oil paints, water color, pastel, drawing - no way! I've tried, I've taken lessons - it was not for lack of desire, just some people can draw, some can't. Now 3D offers those of us who want to do art a means of doing so. Anyway, just do it. You will find the more you do, the more you learn, and the more art you will create. Bryce won't make you an artist, but it will help you create the art that is in you. Good luck, welcome to the formums, and happy rendering! Peggy
